Divorce In Berlin.

Statistics have just been published on
the subject of divorce in Berlin. In 1880
the Landgericht pronounced decree of
divorce in 412 cases, and later figures are:
1881, 464; 1882, 100, 1883, 788, and 1884,
754, total Of 3,167 divorces Tor five
years.
OF these 3.167 cases 1.071 are attribu-
table to infidelity, or 1878 per cent Of the
whole; to desertion, ST 1858 per cent? !;
mutual consent, TAG (22.2 per cent?; while
in 1865 cases divorce was granted on ac-
count of the heavy criminal punishment
of the respondents, LAT on account Of i'll
treatment, 81 on account of wounded
honor, Al on account Of antipathy on one
side, II on account of illness.
OF the marriages disannulled, 81 were
of more than % years duration, but the
bulk of the divorces fell to marriages of 3
to 10 years duration, an especially large
number falling to those of from z to IL
years. In 348 cases Q1 per cent? the diff
ference between the ages of the divorced
persons was more than 10 years. In 1884
divorce was pronounced in AZ cases in
which the difference ranged from II to is
years, 81 in which it was from 16 to 20,
and 10 in whichit was over 20 years. 1t
Is noteworthy that OF the 3,167 divorces
referred to, 1,033 fell to the Independent
artisan class, 722 to work people and
journeymen, 688 to business people, 1919 to
officials, 1876 to the servant classes, 1873 to

GROWTH OF A BIG Book. When Web
ster's Unabridged was first published in
one volume, it was a comparatively
small book. Some years after an adj
dition was made of 1900 Pictorial illus
trations, A Table of aynonyms, and an
Appendix of New Words that had come
into use. A few years later came an en-
tirely new revised edition Of larger size,
with 5000 Pictorial illustrations, then,
after interval Of few years, a Biograph
ical Dictionary of nearly 10000 Names
and a Supplement of nearly 5000 New
Words were added, and there has come
a new and most valuable addition, A
Gazetteer of the World, of over $4,000
Titles. The work is now not only the
Dictionary, par excellence, but Bio
graphical Dictionary, Gazetteer ofthe
World, and great many other good
things in its many valuable Tables.

Commenting on the new rates, the
Oreconian remarks that in making
comparisons between the new tariff
and the present one, it should be It.
membered that the present tariff is
obsolete and has not been in force
since the dissolution of the Transcon
tncntal Association Il year ago, and
the war Of rates which followed 1t
serves only rs basis on which to cut
rates The general rule has been TO
make the rate 80 per cent. of the tariff,
| with Il minimum of 60 cents per hun
dred. Take, for instance, first-class
freight. The apparent increase is so
cents hundred. In reality it is 81
%, because the rate "a which first-class
freight is carried is $1.75; not $3.50.
This class includes dry goods, cloth
ing, boots and shoes, and merchan-
disc generally on which the freight
does not cut much of a figure in the
cost to the consumer With agricul-
tural implements the rate is increased
800 per cent. Under the present CLASH
fication they come under class A (; I'M
der the new, under fifth-class; present
cut rate, 20 cents; new rate, 1925;
increase S1.55, which will amount on
each reaper toa little more than $3.50.
With barbcd wire, very important
item i'll this country, the increase is
still larger. 1t will be in the tifth-class,
and has been coming at the minimum
rate, GO cents. This will increase the
price 81. 65 per hundred.
Beyond discussing the matter, no
action has been taken by the transcon-
tinental lines relative to freight rates
from Pacific Coast terminals to the
East. Various lines with an inilexible
tariff to protect themselves against
ocean competition on some classes of
local freight, will hold their local bust
ness up to profitable rate, encourage
some weak manufa curing enterprises
on the coast, and still get Il satisfactory
rate on through business.

Regular Correspondence.

John Peel has moved on to his
ranch. His family he leaves in town
for the present.
DIR. Roundtrec is rcfixing his former
drug store, probably with the intention
of opening out new branch of bust
ness.
A crowd of strangers stopped off
here last night. They are principally
from Texas, looking for Il country
where they will have the refreshing
dews from heaven Il little oftcner than
every two years which has been the
case in Texas.
Last Saturday the Joe Hooker Post,
G. A. r., met mt the Centralia Hotel.
Mr.. Richards, the ever jovial landlord,
set up an old-time supper of pork and
beans, adding of course all the other
little extras unknown to the old SOL
diers of war times.
Last evening Mr.. lights horse ran
away, upsetting the buggy in which
were several ladies. At first it was
feared that serious results would be
inevitable, but after examination it
was found that beyond few bruises
the ladies were all right.
What might have been a very seri-
GUS accident occurred yesterday in the
shingle mill. Ed. Winston was busy
at the edger, when instead of present
ing a single he made his han1 serve
the purpose and the consequence was
very wicked cash between the thumb
and the wrist. DIR. McNutt soon put
in some stitches and the wound is get
ting along all right.
Quite an excitement was raised last
week by the disappearance of the wife
of one of the medical staff here. After
looking in every unlikely place, the
frantic husband called in some neigh
bors to aid in the search. The house
was ransacked throughout and upon
entering the cuisine the missing wife
herself was seen standing in the door
way. The meeting was most attec-
tionate and we draw the curtain here.

Sprague, the conductor, is certainly
quite an exemplary young man in his
